Follow up on the Murder at Tutu's daughter's house.

Here is the latest on this case of the murder at Tutu's daughter's house.

According to the report ,the only item missing from the house is the cellphone that belongs to the domestic worker.

Now what does that mean? Was this murder personal? Why just take the cellphone?I think after all this fuss about rica, it should be the easiest thing in the world for the police & cellphone company to trace that phone as soon as someone put a sim card in or make a call.

Let's see if that works. Good luck.

The motive for the murder of the domestic worker of Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu’s daughter, Mpho Tutu, is still unknown.

Police are trying to establish what led to the murder of Zimbabwean Angela Machinga, 40, whose body was found in the Tutu family home in Milnerton on Thursday.

Machinga had been tied up and stabbed to death.

Police spokesman Warrant Officer November Filander said it was suspected that she was murdered between 1pm and 4pm on Thursday.

“We don’t know what the motive is. Only the cellphone of the deceased is missing. A murder docket was opened for investigation purposes.

“No one has been arrested yet,” said Filander.

He said Machinga was last seen alive by Tutu and her family when they left the house at about 7am on Thursday.

The family returned home at about 4.30pm to find their front door open, and called a security company to investigate.

Upon entry, the security company found Machinga’s body in the house, with stab wounds, and her feet and hands tied up with clothing.

Benny Gool, spokesman for the Tutu family, said the family was not yet available for comment.

“We are waiting to hear from the police; we cannot comment further at this stage,” said Gool.

Tutu’s neighbours told sister paper the Weekend Argus that they had not heard or seen anything unusual on the day of the murder.

A domestic worker said she sometimes chatted to Machinga when she saw her on the street, but she did not know whether Machinga had a husband or children.
